Is there any mystery greater than those we love the
most?
In this remarkable collaboration, New
York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice and Joseph
Monninger combine their unique talents to create a
powerfully moving novel of an estranged husband and wife
through a series of searching, intimate letters. By way of
a correspondence so achingly real you’ll forget it’s
fiction, they trace the history of a love affair and of a
family before, and after, the moment that changed the
course of two people’s journey forever.
Sam and
Hadley West are both trying in their own ways to survive
after the unthinkable loss of their only son in Alaska.
For Sam, a sports journalist, acceptance means an arduous
trek by dogsled across the bleak and beautiful arctic
wilderness to find the place where Paul died. For Hadley,
it means renting a benignly haunted, salt-soaked cottage
off the Maine coast where she begins to paint again.
Now, at opposite ends of the country, waiting for
their divorce to be finalized, they begin to exchange
letters by post, missives filled with longing and truths
they’ve never before voiced, as they recall their marriage—
its magic moments and its challenges—and begin to
rediscover the reasons they fell in love in the first
place.
As Sam risks his life to reach the remote
crash site, Hadley begins an equally hazardous inner
journey to a rendezvous with the mad grief of a mother’s
heart. At the place where all else is lost, they will meet
again….
